Oracle7 Server Getting Started for Windows NT 

Oracle software uses configuration parameters to locate files and specify
runtime parameters common to all Oracle products.

When an Oracle program or application requires a translation for a
particular configuration variable, the Oracle7 Server for Windows NT
consults the associated parameter.

You can set configuration parameters on your Windows NT Server
machine three ways.

Oracle configuration parameters are stored in
\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE. You can modify
the values stored in this key by running the registry editor program,
REGEDT32, included with your Windows NT software. To access the
Oracle configuration parameters in the Windows NT Registry, type the
following:

C:\>REGEDT32

The syntax for setting any configuration parameter in your
AUTOEXEC.BAT file is

SET PARAMETER_NAME=PARAMETER_VALUE

where parameter_name is the name of the parameter and parameter_value
is the value you choose.

A value you set in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file is inherited by every
command prompt you launch from within Windows NT.

Values set in AUTOEXEC.BAT do not take effect until

you start up a new Windows NT command prompt. Any Oracle
software you run subsequently recognizes values set in
AUTOEXEC.BAT, and does not search for corresponding values
in the Windows NT Registry.

The syntax for setting any configuration parameter at the command
prompt is

C:\>SET parameter_name=parameter_value
